....Years since we arrived in the Wairau.

The Wairau plains and lands of Te Tau Ihu have been the home or our people for nearly 800 years and Attached to our whenua are our unique stories.

Since the first Polynesian fleet arrived from out of the pacific and landed on the shores of Te Pokohiwi-a-kupe around 1280 ad, to the recent settlement process with the crown, Ngā Pakiaka Mōrehu o te whenua have remained in the Wairau as the ahi kaa.
